The chief minister is poised to impose new covid measures on the Island this morning.

They're due to be brought in at one minute after midnight tonight, after more unexplained cases were found on the Island yesterday evening.

Pupils from Bemahague School in year 8 and their households are asked to stay at home, and wait to be contacted by 111 Covid hotline.

The Department of Education Sport and Culture says the Island's schools and University College Isle of Man will be open today as normal.

It's not known at this time what form the measures will take, with Howard Quayle set to hold a media briefing at 10am this morning.
